There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and statistics.

Cool, can I quote the same line when you try and tell me the sky is blue?

Also, is saying "The Sky is Blue" a racist phrase in 2019?

Probably is.

If you support science you're a bigot and a white supremacist.

I think the most profound thing I learned in college was from an economics professor. he placed a one of his gnarled little hands on my shoulder and said, "melon, figures don't lie, butt liars figure." my mind was blown.

someone post the seal following the guy around comic.

it is self-evident that questioning the brown president with a foreign African father's circumstances of birth is an interesting memetic storyline to racists. if you insist on denying this further after this post, I will be very kind to you and chalk it up to trolling.

What's your explanation for Obama's own family saying he was born in Kenya?

a fact or piece of data from a study of a large quantity of numerical data.

Modern science is based entirely on empiricism derived from statistical proofs. That means science is just a bunch of lies.

No. Fuck that.

Is it racist to criticize black people?

It had nothing to do with his race and everything to do with his family and their nationality. And the fact that no one could prove where he was born.

Sorry, not buying the 'racist' angle. It's for the idiots to believe.

i haven't read into the evidence at all. maybe he was born in Kenya. the storyline still memes because of the race angle. that is my only assertion here and it is accurate.

you are reactionarily talking past me and not comprehending what I am saying. it's another pavlovian response from you. i won't entertain any further examples of that, but if you wanna talk to me i'll be here.
